In desperate need of some chilled out island vibes right now? Vanuatu Tourism Office has got you covered, with a moment of relaxation in this tranquil five-minute guided meditation.
Wishing you were hanging out in a hammock right now, sipping on a fresh coconut, without a care in the world?
Me and you both, my friend.
However, paradise IS in sight and while we all wait for the go-ahead to travel back to this beautiful land, we can enjoy meditating to the peaceful sounds of Vanuatu.
The Vanuatu Tourism Office (VTO) has launched this five-minute guided meditation, as part of the ‘We’ll Keep it Beautiful for You’ campaign launched last month.

Relax to the sounds of paradise
Available on VTO’s Facebook page, the guided meditation is set to the calming sounds of the island’s natural surrounds.
VTO’s guided meditation was developed in conjunction with Kory McAvoy, founder of wellbeing and lifestyle school, The Academy of Grounding, and features the rushing waterfall at Mele Cascades in Efate; lapping waves at Port Olry in Santo, and the hum of the rainforest in Tanna.
These sounds have been carefully selected and recorded to transport listeners to the islands of Vanuatu until they are able to return to the islands in person.
“It is well documented that meditation helps us reduce stress and improve our state of mind. Meditating in nature is a very powerful practice to ground us into the here and now,”
Kory McAvoy, founder of wellbeing and lifestyle school
“The more we are able to control our attention and connect with the sounds and imagery that nature provides for us, the more our mind and body synchronises and relaxes,” said Mr McAvoy.
